VPN providers see blocking orders as a threat to security and some consider exiting France, if blocking measures are granted.

There is already precedent for that. Wireguard/OpenVPN traffic going out of the country is blocked, the same traffic within thwecountry is allowed. However, then we have issue with protocols mimicking normal HTTPS… So they may block the ranges of popular hosters instead. But I doubt it would be done to a full extent even in an extreme situation because way too much breaks… And the Internet is still much more than Hetzner or OVH.
P.S. From what I have seen, people have even been doing setups of two servers - one inside the country running WG/OVPN that their and their family or friends’ devices connect to, and one abroad - connected to the first one using a stealthy protocol that you could change at any time if the censorship situation changes, without the end devices having to bother or noticing anything.
